she just gave the hw
so what i do
wdym by approximate
like should I round it
to
2
decimals
ok
both of them?
sooooooooo
what should I do sir
nope
its just homework
ok
which rounded x
oh ok
so sub the first one
x = blah y = blah
then do the 2nd one?
Lambda
so where x = 0.90
Y = 7.70?
on the first one
it says it is incorrect
idk
oh
x=0.895644
yeah
I said 0.90
so what should I do
Lambda
After simplified u will get$\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{84}}{8}$
Noone
Yes
ok
Then round off to two decimal places
Yes
then
ok
so
y= 3(1.40) + 5
?
9.2
do
I go with the rounded or no
i put
x = 1.40
y = 9.20
ayyy
after 4 hours I get the mark
nah it was right
ima do the 2nd one
ok I got right
thanks @reef tendon @meager jackal

idk how to go
what do you know about an hermitian matrix ?
A = A^T*
plug that in. simplify
you'll get (number) = (number)^*, so the number has to be real
use \overline
Herels
since A is hermitian, we plug transpose of A* in it and we'll see what happen
$\overline{\overline{X} (\overline{A})^T X}$
damn..
Herels
which is equal to :
$X \overline{(\overline{A})^T} \overline{X}$
Herels
now how to calculate that thing in the middle
yes
i think i don't get it yet
what happened
this is what we want to prove
is this a property?
well yes, if a scalar is real,his conjugate is himself
i think i am so lost
what does a scalar have to do here
because X* AX is a scalar
and how did i know that
well X is a vector and A a matrix
and ?
i think i am missing something here
$\begin{pmatrix} x^{} & y^{} \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} a & b \ c & d \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} x \ y \end{pmatrix}$
hmm the first one should be transpose to return a scalar, and we cant multiply vectors
Herels
@golden eagle Has your question been resolved?
i think i will search more and try to make sure that i understand everything that i need to understand this.

Hey there, just wondering how I can calculate the bias of a list of estimators
What ive currently done is the sum of abs(real value-estimate value i) and then dividied by the no.estimators
Im not really sure about the absolute value though, like lets say if the value I wanted is 0, and I estimate 0.2 and -0.2, the mean of those is 0 but am I right in saying the bias is still 0.2

where is your issue
You've solved the equation for t when h=0, and found out the overall time ∆t for the ball's flight, correct?
What
Do u mean a
I tried to make my own table where t is 0,1,2 and m is 0,8,8
But the table in the book in the table only goes till 2 for t and m goes till 5 so its kinda impossible
Could you clarify what you mean by this?
Ah
We actually don't need to put (0,0) at the center of the page; that's just a convention that's used when a function is most interesting around the origin
But for this function, we care only when 0 ≤ t ≤ 4, so we should probably have the origin towards the left side, since we don't care about negative values of t in this case.
Here's an example of what I mean
The main X and Y axes can be drawn anywhere on the page; you just need to appropriately plot the graph for those axes
It's not a requirement that (0,0) is at the center of the page
So where do i start it
Well, what is the range of t?
Yeah most likely; I just don't have any on hand
I have an a3 graph paper book is that an overkill
What is the minimum value of t and the maximum value of t that should definitely be on that graph?
This maybe
you should still be able to do it in the workbook; there actually is enough space for it
Yep, that's good, though you should also include when t=3, since we care about its entire flight path
Ok
And another consideration: on the interval from 0 to 3 (the interval we're tracking), is h(t) ever negative?
or to make it more general, what is the smallest value that h(t) should be, when we plug in numbers between 0 and 3
What
Ah, sorry for not explaining where I'm going with this. We positioned the t/x axis to include everything we want, but we should still position the h(t)/y axis to include everything we wanted to
your table shows that h(t) can definitely be 0 and 8, so we should position the graph so that both of those values are included
It seems you've adjusted the scale (how far apart the numbers are) and left the origin (the point (0,0)) in the center of the page.
Wat
Recall that the problem asked for a specific scale, but didn't tell you where to put (0,0) on the page
Notice how you have the part where t < 0 still on the page
But we don't really need to plot anything on that part for the question, since the ball can't go below the ground
Im confused
Ye
Recall that the question asked us to graph the portion of the graph where the ball was in flight
When the time is less than 0, i.e. before you throw the ball, has the ball taken flight?
No
Yep, exactly
So in that case, we can position the point (0,0) of the graph such that there's no (or a very small) part of the graph where t < 0
Since we don't care about it for the problem
Does that make sense?
Yep
Yea
So, if we position the origin somewhere on the left side of the page, can we fit all three seconds (the time the ball is in the air) on the page when the interval is 4cm/1 second
Does it make a diff if u start it ata left?
Not unless you need negative values, which we don't
How a graph is positioned is really more of an aesthetic/practical thing, it shouldn't impact our graph
Wr dont need the negative value for this?
We don't need negative values of t, because, as you said, the ball isn't flying before it's thrown
Ok
It does end up being the case that we also don't need the vertical axis to ever be negative, since something thrown shouldn't ever be below the ground
Speaking of, we should take a similar process for the vertical part.
As per your table, you need to include both 0 and 8 on the graph, so we should position the origin so that both of those heights are present.
If it helps with finding positions, I claim that the function h(t) is never less than 0 between t=0 and t=3, and I encourage you to double check this
I double checked with the answer key in the back

Can someone assist me with this question? What exactly is it asking? My book doesn't provide an example...
if x is in [0,2pi), when is f(x)=0?
yes
Sure
yeah do that
I'm just looking for the output right?
but how do I know what quadrant to look at
all quadrants
oh boy
but you got the answer already
this is correct
yeah
yeah both
why would you not have the unit circle
cause it looks like it wasn't me to solve the function at 0
I guess you could graph the function in cartesian plane
but how would you know where the solutions are without the unit circle
I don't know
I recall my professor using triangles
for one problem
I did ask him about his method, he told me to just use the unit circle lol.,..
maybe I'll just stick with it
so , does it matter if I use degrees or radians here?
well you should use radians
because f(x)=cos(x) is in radians unless otherwise specified

how do I find the derivative of this?
Do it a few times and find a pattern
Do you spot something
yeah when i take the odd derivative its negative and even its positve
and the exponent gets multiplied by itself by how many times the derivative is
how would i show my answer?
like is x now 2016 and I have to find the derivative of that?
cuz it will be 0
and the answer key says its 2016!
so i am confused
2016 —> 2016x2015 —>2016x2015x2014 do you see where this is going
Not quite if it’s multiplied by that the first derivative would be multiplied by 2015!
Which is 2015x2014x2013x…x1
so what would it be then?
Do you just want me to tell you?
ok?
I’m trying to just conjecture a general solution for the nth derivative here
ok
So we have $(-1)^n \cdot …$
Pure
Now for the power of (1-x)
ok
It goes down by one every time we differentiate
ok
So for the nth derivative we have $(1-x)^{2016-n}$
Pure
Agreed?
but the question asked that?
it asks for $f^{(2006)} (2006)$
Pure
Alright
Point is it asks for the 2016th derivative of 2016
This has nothing to do with f(2016)
ok
Okay continue from here we now have $$(-1)^n \cdot (1-x)^n \cdot …$
Pure
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
Now for the number term
For the first derivative we have
$2016$ which can be written as $\frac{2016!}{2015!}$
Pure
ok
For the second derivative$2016 \cdot 2015 =\frac{2016!}{2014!}$
Pure
And the third $2016 \cdot 2015 \cdot 2014 = \frac{2016!}{2013!}$
Pure
We can therefore say that for the nth derivative we have $$\frac{2016!}{(2016-n)!}$$
Pure
And we got our expression for the nth derivative of f(x)
Plugging n=2016 into this formula yields 2016! which is the answer

a triangle ABC have A=30degrees, B=60degrees and AB = a
Find the length AC and BC expressed with a.
how do i solve this, have absoluttely no idea
30 60 90 is a special right triangle
Right angle triangle
yep
Do some trig
i have memorized the values but dont understand the whole express with ''a'' thing
answer in terms of a
Draw a picture first
Right so the hypothesuse is a
yes
Let’s look at sinA
So sin30
We know this is 1/2
But we also know it’s CB/AB
$\frac{1}{2} = \frac{CB}{a}$
Pure
You following this so far?
yep
Pure
So AC = a sqrt3/2
ohh i think i understand now
prob have to read the chat one more time tho 🙂

need help with basic trigonometric functions
i need to simplify the circled problems
i got 3sin75°-2sin75° on this one
did i do it right or no
aye aye
wassup
so
do u
have a
picture
of ur
work
it’s basically
using
addition formula
yk
i dont
ive slept through past 4 math classes and got a test tomorrow so im here studying at 11pm
need to simplify not solve 😭
Hmmmm
aye i see it
first time seeing this shi
ah alr
well
u learn
smth new
everyday
so
u know
ur special angles
30,45,60,90
okay but like is this correct or no
aye
me neither
but
it’s okay
we learn
now
ye
alr so
look at
ur question
$3cos15 - 2sin75$
Springsskateboard
yes i think
no
90-75
15 isn’t one
60-45
75-60
😭
wait a min
45-30
lmao oops
why did I say yes to that
I saw wrongly
75 isn’t
a special angle
yep
yes
okay...
lets do 60-45
alr
u need
brackets
(60-45)
if it’s just
one number
then u don’t need
brackets
but here
brackets added
u have more than 1
go on
i have many sins
HAHAHA
45+30
since its -sin we gotta add special angles and because cos is positive we gotta subtract?
ahh okay okay got it
we just want 2 numbers
that add/subtract to the inside
yeye
so
what do u
have
whats going on here bro
where are you getting these silly values
cat i told you the nice man is helping me shush
no comprendes
thats what i initially thought
It is
It might be easier with a unit circle visual
because look at
sooo i could have just gone straight forward with that instead of going through this process 😭
im gonna cry
i am confused, shaken, sobbing
see bro this is why you listen to my made up formulas
my bad bro
yea
why u tell me it was wrong at first @vivid cliff 😭
I learnt from this too
with tg and ctg
same thing
wait
is it the same thing
my teacher wants us to just turn them into equal units or whatever
it’s just sin75
so exact or nah
oh alr then
is it same process for tg and ctg

hello how can i start here?
you know how for every bilinear form, there is a corresponding matrix, such that:
$b(x, y) = x^T \cdot M \cdot y$
rbit ✨
right
what is this matrix for the standard inner product?
the identity matrix?
yeah
i mean using that we can actually do it pretty directly:
$x^T \cdot A_{\beta} \cdot y = x^T \cdot \phi(y)$
rbit ✨
wait whats the letter?
phi ok
instead of writing phi(y), what can we do instead?
A*y
rbit ✨
yeah, a different approach to this instead would be to go through all the unit vector for x and y, and then using that to find the A phi matrix
and then linearity shows that this suffices
i think it does, because by plugging in all n² possible combinations of unit vectors for x and y, you get all n² elements of the matrix individually and then they have to be unique
but that takes a bit of work as you can guess, because then you also need to prove the matrix will do the job for all x and y
hmm ok
like you do
beta(e3, e4) = <e3, A*e4>
and then you get the A_34 entry of the matrix
right
hmm okay thank u
i hope this suffices
it does make sense
like $M_{\phi}$ is the only linear map possible for this
b3s4d
yeah, matrices uniquely determine linear maps

How do I solve this with squeeze theorem?
In particular the division is what im not sure what to do with
if it was 6hsin6h I would know how to solve it with -1 < sin6h < 1 and multiply 6 on each term
do you know instead how to evaluate $$\lim_{g \to 0} \frac {\sin(g)}{g}$$
Steakanator
Guess not
really? that's usually the progression for such limit questions
if i cant substitute it I use limit properties right
I skipped a couple lessons on khan academy to get to squeeze theorem
that's perhaps why
the usual approach is to make the substitution g = 6h, which reduces to the limit I mentioned
On a calculator 0/0 is undefined but in this case it is 1, why is that?
sin(0) is 1 so perhaps that is why? but how did sin(g) become solo
because taking the limit is not the same as just evaluating a function at that point
the two happen to coincide if the function in question is continuous there (and that's indeed the definition of continuity at a point), but the two are different if there are discontinuities
and a denominator of x should be a good indicator that there's a discontinuity at 0

hi
yo
idk how to do it
alr so
first thing
shortest distance
would be
a line
that includes P
that’s perpendicular
to the line u see
given to u
ye?
so first
u need to choose
any 2 points on the line
they gave u
and find the gradient/slope
then after that
u can find the gradient/slope
of the perpendicular line
by using
m1m2=-1
next
u needa find the c’s in both equation
then afterwards
find point of intersection
by making the 2 equations =
then solve for x
and get ur Y
then use distance formula
for the distance
the hell
What's the slope of the line
ok so
@hybrid snow @vivid cliff i finished it
can i tell me if im right
wait no i finished this *

Are my examples & solution on solving quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula correct?
your handwriting makes fives look like threes sometimes...
like, i would not read this as x=-5. it reads as x=-3
also i think you typoed in the equation you're solving in #3. did you mean 2x^2 + 5x - 3 = 0?
right, let's see

I like remember but not really
We were using some sort of number line method
I know we have to find what values make it 0 but how do I factor and simplify this
If I factor I think I should get it
I don’t know how to get the derivative I’m lost
I'd advise you to read up on the product and chain rules of derivatives.
that's for the derivative of polynomials of functions yes.
Yea but im trying to make it that no?
That's why I mentioned chain and product rules
Mmmm ok
And the outer function is x^2
You're doing derivatives without understanding composite functions?
That's...unusual in Calculus
I haven’t learned that term yet 🤷♂️
I’ll ask my teacher tmr for sure about it
Maybe I have
in order to differentiate (x-3)^2
...yeah I dunno what your calculus course is doing if it doesn't teach this during differentiation

why for this one do you have to do for part a, 68%+(95%-68%/2) = 81.5
%
then 1-(1-0.815)^2
why do you square for that part
and no idea for part b

anybody know this?
(n+1)/n and (n+2)/n
Can you explain me why?
$$\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{n+1}{n}=1=\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{n+2}{n}$$
秋水
is (n+1)/n < (n+2)/n ?
yes, n+1<n+2
and they are convergent?
yes, their limits are 1
thank you!

For f'(x) i used f(x)=ax^2+bx+c but now i need to use f''(x) should i use f(x)=ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+f or should i use something different
The new function needs to through -4 and 4
what was the original question
so g(x) and h(x) are 2 streets and for the first task i needed to find a new street function that connects -4 and 4 the street should be smooth and without a kink
for the first i used f(x) for smooth and f'(x) for no kink
yes for the first task
and its kinda weird when i use a f''(x) for the quadratic function
what is the second task
To find a second function/street with f“(x)
just any function that connects -4 to 4?
The first function was -1/8x^2+2
or cant it be a quadratic now?
Well I need to know how to calculate it
I think it can but I also want to use a different way for it
okay say you use a cubic function
do you know that you can write polynomials as a product of linear factors?
the factors represent the roots
for example, x^2 + 3x + 2 = (x+1)(x+2) with roots at x = -1 and x = -2
so it means it goes through -1 and -2?
yes
a cubic function can be written as (x-a)(x-b)(x-c), we want two roots to be at -4 and +4
for example (x+4)(x-4)(x-c)
why did you use 4 to replace a and b?
ohhh
the third root c can be anything really, we dont care about it now
but you want the function to be 4 at x=0 right?
Yes
lets say we pick this cubic function $(x-4)(x+4)(x-8)$ so the third root is at $x=8$, we can graph this
nvx
,w plot (x-4)(x+4)(x-8)
i just chose randomly
Can I pick any number?
if you do not have any other conditions for the function, then yes
or do you want there to be an extremal point at x=0?
What is a extremal point?
whats its called in english uhh, like where the tangent of the function is horizontal
,w plot x^2
if you refer back to the previous graph we can see its not 4 at x=0
so we still need a little modification
You mean the height?
yes its really high
we can tweak it a bit, remember we had
$$(x-4)(x+4)(x-8)$$
nvx
we can multiply everything by a factor $a$ which doesnt change the roots
$$a(x-4)(x+4)(x-8)$$
nvx
and now we need to find a? or pick a number
we now need to find $a$ such that $a(x-4)(x+4)(x-8) = 4$ if $x=0$
nvx
can you solve this for $a$: $a(-4)(4)(-8) = 4$?
